You have all things

“Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;” 
1 Corinthians 3:21-22(KJV)

Adolf Hitler sold his soul to satan and told satan to give him power on earth telling satan what he will do if he got that power. Suddenly, he rose to influence in Germany, afterwards, he got satan's seat from Pergamos (See Revelation 2:12-13) and from there he proclaimed his one thousand years rule but he died eventually.

I told you that story about Hitler because I want you to know that influence is supernatural. This is why satan who is the god of this world system (2 Corinthians 4:4) is willing to give influence to anyone who sells his soul to him because he knows that when you are lost, you are eternally lost. If you lose a car, you can regain a car, if you lose a house, you can regain a house, but if you lose your soul, it is lost forever. This is why the Bible says in Matthew 16:26 “For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?”

Many because of their lust for power or success have sold their soul to satan and joined a cult or an occultic organization at the expense of their soul, because they do not know that in the kingdom of God, God is willing to give them anything because He gave up everything to have us.

This is why we preach the gospel, so that we can let the world know that they do not need to sell their soul to satan to be successful. The success and influence they desire will be theirs if only they yield to the gospel and receive salvation.

The Bible says in Romans 8:32 “He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?”

PRAYER
Dear Father I give you my heart, my mind, my soul, my strength and all that is within me. Thank you Father for giving your very best for me that I may have all things, to You alone be all the praise and glory in Jesus Name. Amen.

If you are beginning to compromise your faith because of your lust for influence, I urge you today to repent and surrender to the Lord.
